NONLINEAR OPTICAL RESPONSE OF C60 AND C70 FULLERENES

Abstract
The macroscopic preparation of novel conjugated allotropes of carbon, the Fullerenes, has become easy to achieve and commonplace, leading to widespread study of their physical and chemical properties. In this paper we review the nonlinear optical effects observed in Fullerenes to date. Both second and third order response has been studied and the results indicate that this class of materials is highly promising for optoelectronic applications.
